“All ladies are asked to wear red and there will be prizes and special treats,” says Angela Smith, Central Huron Community Improvement Co-ordinator and Thursday Tunes organizer. “Special guest musician Jason Lamont will be entertaining us. It’s going to be a lot of fun!”

Central Huron hosted its first-ever Thursday Tunes on February 1 and it was a hit! "It was a resounding success," says Smith. "I was overwhelmed by the turnout and the support from the community."

This weekly seniors’ musical event features local musicians playing old-time fiddle and traditional style music. All are welcome to enjoy the tunes and social time every Thursday from 1-3:30 p.m at the Central Huron Community Complex (at arena level, for accessible entry). Admission is by donation and profits will be donated to community organizations, such as the local food bank.

Please note: As a request to the community, Thursday Tunes is looking for a loan of or donation of a keyboard. “We have a great piano player, it’s just quite hard for her to lug the keyboard into her car,” explains Smith. “We’d keep one at the arena if we could find one that isn’t being used.”

If you or someone you know has a keyboard they would like to loan to Thursday Tunes, please contact Angela by phone at: (519) 476-5922 or by email at: cic@centralhuron.com
